"Magic is what makes fantasy fantastic," someone says, "you can't apply rules to them or else it loses wonder!"

Here, I'm going to outline my basic method for developing a magic system.

Why would parents have to force children to cook? I guess if the parents don't like to cook, then maybe, but otherwise, it's just sharing something that's fun (with tasty results).

You have a comfortable pair of slippers--that would only fit someone as big as Hagrid.
